Short Synopsis (153 words): Gabriel and five friends are stranded
on his family farm on a day of national tragedy that forces them to confront
their fears and ideals. Meanwhile the ghosts of Gabriel's great grandparents
recollect the horrors of the 20th Century, from World War One and the
Great Depression to World War Two and the deaths of their children. Throughout
all of this, two supernatural beings reflect on the events of the day
while reading from a sacred black book. As night falls, it becomes clear
that the tragedy affecting the nation has reached the farm, leaving Gabriel's
life hanging in the balance.
Reminiscent
of films such as Wim Wender's Wings of Desire, Ingmar Bergman's
Persona, Alain Resnais's Hiroshima Mon Amour, and influenced
by the writings of philosopher Ken Wilber, Eastern mysticism, and Western
spirituality, Dark September Rain is a provocative and inspiring exploration
of what it means to live in a post-September 11th world.
